Karmel S. Shehadeh posted her recent paper on "Stochastic Optimization Approaches for an Operating Room and Anesthesiologist Scheduling Problem" (to appear in Operations Research). This is a classic example of the approach used in the stochastic programming community where they use a stochastic lookahead policy (which is fine), but lose sight of the fact that the goal is to search for the best (according to whatever criteria apply) policy that works well over time. Virtually all stochastic lookahead policies (and it is certainly the case here) are approximations of the real problem, which means that an optimal solution is *not* an optimal policy. I don't mind how the problem is being solved, but I really urge people to properly formulate the objective function. That is why I had an entire series of LinkedIn posts on the topic of objective functions. You can view the posts at https://lnkd.in/e3q4r-wJ A proper objective function should state how a policy is being evaluated, and at least state the aspirational goal of searching for the best policy. It would be nice if papers would at least mention the four classes of policies, and then describe why they chose to focus on whatever class they settled on.

In the ever-evolving field of #eyecare, understanding your personal ‘why’ is crucial. It’s not just about what we do, but why we do it. Whether you’re an #optometrist, #ophthalmologist, or an #optician, connecting with your core motivations can transform your daily practice into a fulfilling career. By identifying the deeper purpose behind your work—be it enhancing patient quality of life, advancing eye care technology, or educating the community—you ignite passion and drive innovation. Let’s discuss how we can thrive by aligning our professional journeys with our personal convictions, leading to greater satisfaction and impactful outcomes. #LifeAtMyEyeDr #FavoriteOptometrist #PersonalDevelopment #OptometryLife #Ophthalmology #Opticianary #Optometry #OptometryStudent

I love this picture. Taken before Buoyant was a fully formed idea, it represents to me exactly what we’re doing: taking a tangled mess and not removing it, but transforming it into something that protects rather than blocks your path. Today, your connection to your doctors is so controlled by a system of insurmountable barriers that simple problems may take months to fix, and what used to be a two-minute phone call has become hours of waiting in an urgent care. With Buoyant, you will have access not only to the specialty expertise of every Buoyant team member, but also to every specialty that we can access via our network, from cardiology to dermatology. There will be no gatekeeper, pre-approval, or anything other than you having a question and your phone. Your Buoyant membership will give you direct, personal access to our entire team and extended specialty network to answer any medical question you may have. It’s really that simple. If you need a doctor, you talk to a doctor. If you need labs or imaging, we order them for you. If you need a specialist, we consult one for you. Even if you need to move outside of our team to see a specialist in person, we coordinate everything. And because reclaiming control of your health and your life means more than just putting out life’s fires, Buoyant also has the tools to help you be proactive about your health in ways you probably never thought possible. This isn’t research – it’s proven science that just isn’t mainstream…yet. Website, pricing, and an exciting announcement are planned for release next week. Thank you so much for following our progress. Adam Friedlander, MD Founder & CEO #Buoyant #LetsFixMedicine #WatchThisSpace

Hey Self-Funded Businesses - Are you interested in saving about 40% on your annual surgery and other related out-patient costs? Yes! Proprietary contracts in SBM play a crucial role by enabling partnerships with highly qualified providers. These contracts are foundational to revolutionizing surgery management, ensuring cost-effectiveness and efficiency, and offering significant savings on annual surgery costs for self-funded companies. https://lnkd.in/gGR3mtnk #sbm #selfinsuredcompanies #selffunded #surgicalbenefitmanagement

As you carve your path in the surgical world, don’t forget: life ain’t just about the operating room. Sure, you’re smashing it in your career, but what about the rest?
